Baumer_GIM500R_CANopen_MA_EN.docx 4/29 www.baumer.com03.192 Safety and operating instructionsIntended use The inclination sensor is a precision measuring device to determine angular positions and to supply thedownstream device with measured values in the form of electronic output signals. The inclination sensormust not be used for any other purpose. Make sure the appropriate safety measures are present to prevent damage to persons, the system oroperating facilities in case of sensor error or failure.Personnel qualification The inclination sensor must only be installed by a qualified electronics and precision mechanics. Observe the user manual of the machine manufacturer.Maintenance The inclination sensor is maintenance-free and must not be opened or modified in its electronics ormechanical design. Opening the sensor can lead to personal injury.Disposal The inclination sensor contains electronic components. At its disposal, local environmental guidelinesmust be followed.Installation Avoid mechanical impacts or shocks on the housing.Electrical commissioning Do not perform any electrical modifications at the inclination sensor. Do not carry out any wiring work when the inclination sensor is live. Do not dock or undock the electrical connection while the inclination sensor is live. Ensure that the entire equipment is installed in line with EMC requirements. Ambient conditions andwiring affect the electromagnetic compatibility of the inclination sensor. Install sensor and supply cablesseparately or far away from lines with high interference emissions (frequency converters, contactors,etc.). Provide separate power supply for the inclination sensor where working with consumers that have highinterference emissions. Completely shield the inclination sensor housing and connecting cables. Connect the sensor to protective earth (PE) using shielded cables. The braided shield must beconnected to the cable gland or connector. Ideally, aim at a bilateral connection to protective earth (PE),the housing via the mechanical assembly and the cable shield via the downstream devices. In case ofearth loop problems, earth on one side only as a minimum requirement.Supplementary information This manual is intended as a supplement to already existing documentation (i.e. catalogue, productinformation and mounting instruction).
